Who had the ring...

[chelleliz]

I remember a ring being posted pretty recently and it had a really tiny halo. I LOVED it and saw it in a magazine last night and now I can''t remember who the designer is. Anyone know what I''m talking about? It was a very delicate ring. I tried searching and looking back through old posts and couldn''t find anything. Thanks in advance for any help!

Are you talking about this ring??? the Daniel K rosebud https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/im-new-and-engaged-here-are-the-pics.68459/

 

[chelleliz]

No, that''s not the one, although that one is BEAUTIFUL! Thanks! I will have to keep that one in mind.

Can you explain a little more??

Someone recently started a new halos thread, maybe it''s in there? https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/halos.73802/

I think that the halo was lower, kind of like the one you provided. I believe the stone was a cushion. I''m sorry, I know this is super vague!

The best thing might be to just go through the threads in Show Me The Ring. They are listed in order of when they were posted, so if it was recent, you shouldn't have to dig very far to find it.

ETA: since you saw it in a magazine, I'm assuming it must be a pretty well-known designer, there was a Harry Winston posted (or re-posted) recently with a halo, maybe that's the one?

I did that and I''m not seeing it. I''ll keep searching. Thanks for your help!

No, but it''s similar. The halo is so tiny that you almost don''t notice it. Thanks for looking!

 

[BriBee]

Or maybe this one... https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/my-new-ashoka.74508/
It's an Ashoka which is sort of Cushion-y

ETA: I saw your above post after I posted this. So if I see a halo that you barely notice, I'll be back

Hahaha -- thank you!

Here''s a link to a Leon, but I don''t think you''d really consider this a halo...?

Hahaha -- no that''s not it... again. I''m sorry! But that one''s beatiful too! Dang, I''m creating a lot of work for you!

 

[BriBee]

Hahaha!

Now I''ve got it in my head and want to find it!!! Good luck, I gotta get back to my real work

But if I come across anything, I''ll post it.

Tacori makes one with a really tiny, delicate halo. Sorry I don''t have a picture handy.

 

[BriBee]

Here''s my last idea...do you know if this was a ring that someone on PS actually owned? Or maybe they were posting pics of something they like? Because if a PSer owns it, and they were showing off their new bling, then it would most likely end up in the "Eye Candy" folder of Show Me The Ring. Good luck!

I did a quick one and there was this thread:

https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/tacori-halo-setting.74107/

Here is the one he was talking about:
http://www.arthursjewelers.com/jewelscart2000/store/jewelscart2000_viewItem.asp?idProduct=9737
Hard to tell from picture, but I've seen a Tacori in person with an extremely dainty halo.

 

[chelleliz]

FOUND IT! Don''t know how to post a pic, but here''s the link:

Thanks for your help everyone!

Wonderful, I see that you found it. I was just in the process of posting mine to see if this was it - as my halo is very tiny.


Here is my Tacori - kind of the same idea, but with side stones. I love my ring - the quality is soooo good, if you decide to go with that one, you won't be sorry.

That is GORGEOUS! Where did you find it, if you don''t mind me asking?

 

[BlackIsland]

We were wandering around downtown Vancouver (Canada) and went into a place called Lucinda Jewellers. It just so happened that the Tacori Representative from Los Angles was up doing a tour of Western Canada with about 15 boxes of rings, both new and old style. Boy, was that four hours of pure fun! This is the one we finally decided upon. We put a 1.38 RB in it and I could not be happier.

We picked up the small band, as I knew I didn't want anything to distract from the engagement ring, but recently I realized that I want to save our bucks(after the wedding) and get the matching band. Maybe for our 1st wedding anniversary!

Oh, and I think the first post you were looking for was posted by waterlilly
https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/ring-search.74477/

 

[chelleliz]

Well it''s absolutely beautiful! I will be searching high and low for it. Thanks for your help!

I agree, BlackIsland''s ring is gorgeous!!!

Glad you found it!!

 

[gwendolyn]

Oooh, those are shared-prong halos, right? They make ME want a halo, and I''ve forever been a straight-up solitaire girl...

 

[BlackIsland]

Yes, they are shared prong around the halo. I think that is how they can make it so small. It is hard to see without a loupe. I think my fiance would know that I have fallen over the edge if I got myself a loupe! Hmmm, I wonder if EBay has any up for bid..........

 

[March-8-2008]

I have a Tacori halo ring with a princess center stone. (AND I have a loupe! Never would considered buying one before, but lurking on PS will do that to a girl.

)

I''ve had my ring almost two months and I still think it''s the most beautiful, symbolic thing I''ve ever seen. And, despite my worries about the delicacy of the setting, I haven''t lost a stone yet!

One of these days I will get around to posting my ring and the proposal story. I took some photos a while ago but didn''t realize until I''d downloaded them from my camera that there was a fuzz filament stuck in the setting. Aaack! Sooo.... another photo shoot will be in order once the holiday madness is over.

[March-8-2008]

Also, I bought my loupe on eBay.... as I recall, it was about $10 and it does a decent job. Mine is 30x, not 10x.

 

[BlackIsland]

The Tacori salesman warned me that I would be come a bonafide member of the "Tacori Girl " club and I now understand what he meant. Rough Rock - very nice ring! They are just all so expectional that it is hard to choose. I know what you mean about the fuzzy''s - happens when you least expect to see it.
